Hi I'm Davlyn! This is my Mom, Dr. Lynn McKinley-Grant, the Dermatologist behind Namesake.

I've always been the friend that people come to for informed skincare advice, knowing I had quick access to a Dermatologist.

I created Namesake for my friends and now for you! I wanted to share game-changing skincare essentials, providing an opportunity to take a quick moment to yourself without having to worry about yet another thing– like whether or not the products that you use are safe and made with melanin in mind. Enjoy!

"I've only been using NAMESAKE for a few weeks and I definitely can see and feel the difference in my skin. My skin feels soft and dewy. My complexion is clearer with a soft glow." Francine

"I have been using this for about 2 weeks now, and the search is OVER. I have dry sensitive skin that is prone to dry patches/eczema on my skin (usually my smile-line area). My skin feels like BUTTER, and is left so glowy and hydrated for HOURS." Brittney

"It’s my go to moisturizer! Rich but not thick, easily buildable, perfect under makeup. Perfect by itself. Every time I use it ppl ask me how I get my skin so glowy. Couldn’t ask for a better facial lotion." Ahrielle
